Life is a puzzle.





Often times, we don't know how the pieces fit.
But given time, they always do.


And happily, we finally see the picture.

Meet Winter



Winter the dolphin





when she was 3 months old, she got tangled in a crab trap line
her injuries were so severe, her tail was amputated


she now wears a prosthetic fin,
inspiring kids of all ages

What's your {happyland}?

Aside from Disneyland, mine would be on a beach somewhere in Hawaii. I've never been to Hawaii. But I've always dreamed of moving to the Rainbow State - of living by the water; of basking in the sun.

Only statues fear change.
Frozen
set
they easily break.







Better to be
like the ocean
or the breeze
always changing
neverending.
